W: Well, that's no surprise. It was the worst one in town.
Q: What does the woman mean?
15. W: Shall we run around the park or go for a bike ride?
M: It makes no difference to me. They are both good activities.
Q: What does the man say about the activities?
16. M: I can't for the life of me to get that washing machine downstairs to work. Do you have any suggestions?
W: Try washing just half of the normal load.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
17. M: I'm think about dropping my swimming class. I am just not catching on.
W: Stick with it. I did and I learned how to swim, eventually.
Q: What can be inferred about the woman?
18. M: Doctor, this cough medicine doesn't seem to be helping. Can you give me a different prescription?
W: Let's give it another day or two to see how you are doing then.
Q: What does the doctor imply?
19. W: Would you like to see those pants in another color?
They also come in brown and in Navy.
M: Actually the gray is fine but I prefer something in wool.
Q: What will the woman probably do next?
20. W: Professor Burns seems to think there is only one way to write paper and that's her way.
M: No kidding, she sure wasn't like that the last semester.
Q: What can be inferred about professor Burns?
21. W: This barbecue sure beats the last one we went to, Ha?
M: Oh that's right. Everyone had to spend the whole time inside. Good thing the weather decided to cooperate this time around.
Q: What can be inferred from this conversation?
22. M: That new position requires a letter of reference. I guess the one that my professor wrote for me last year should be fine. Don't you think?
W: It is a little dated though. You might want to submit a current one.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
23. W: I don't think I want to be on the curriculum committee anymore but I'm not sure how to get out of it.
M: Well, you know there are plenty of people who will be interested. Me, for example.
Q: What does the man imply?
24. W: Excuse me could you direct me to Customer Service?
M: We can take care of that right here man, and no charge.
You can choose either silver or gold with the matching bowl.
Q: What will the woman probably do the next?
25. M: You wouldn't know by looking at them that I watered them every week.
These plants next to the window always look brown.
W: Maybe they don't like direct sunlight. I had the same problem with some of my plants and a little shade help them immensely.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
26. W: Oh no, I just picked up the pictures I took at Dan and Linda's wedding and look at them and none of them came out.
M: They are dark, aren't they? What a shame. Oh, well I'm sure the professional photographer got everything.
Q: What does the man mean?
27. M: I get the feeling that Sally never really listens to me.
W: You said it. It's as if she were always using the time to rehearse what she will say next.
Q: What does the woman imply?
28. W: Will you make sure all the members of student advisory committee know what to expect at the tomorrow's meeting?
M: They will have a briefing this afternoon.
Q: What does the man mean?
29. W: How do you like my new poster. It was only twenty dollars.
M: Really? The frame alone is worth the money.
Q: What does the man mean?
30. M: I hear Mary isn't getting much support in her running against Steve in the election.
W: It is not over yet. I think she will make a come back.
Q: What does the woman mean?
Question 31-34 Listen to a conversation between two friends.
M: I have been studying too much and need a change. So I've just made plans to go away during January break.
